Heat-flux Fluctuations reveals regime transitions in Rayleigh-Bénard convection

Vincent Labarre, Stéphan Fauve, Sergio Chibbaro

The study of the transitions among different regimes in thermal convection has been an issue of paramount importance in fluid mechanics. While the bifurcations at low Rayleigh numb…

Axisymmetric gravity-capillary standing waves on the surface of a fluid

Jules Fillette, Stéphan Fauve, Eric Falcon

We report on the experimental study of axisymmetric gravity-capillary standing waves generated by a vertically vibrating ring partially immersed into a fluid. Different regimes of…

A new experimental set-up for aerosol stability investigations in microgravity conditions

Charles Graziani, Mathieu Nespoulous, Renaud Denoyel +4

The temporal and spatial evolution of dispersed media is a fundamental problem in a wide range of physicochemical systems, such as emulsions, suspensions and aerosols. These system…

Angular Momentum Transport by Keplerian Turbulence in Liquid Metals

Marlone Vernet, Stephan Fauve, Christophe Gissinger

We report a laboratory study of the transport of angular momentum by a turbulent flow of an electrically conducting fluid confined in a thin disk. When the electromagnetic force ap…

Bifurcations of a plane parallel flow with Kolmogorov forcing

Kannabiran Seshasayanan, Vassilios Dallas, Stephan Fauve

We study the primary bifurcations of a two-dimensional Kolmogorov flow in a channel subject to boundary conditions chosen to mimic a parallel flow, i.e. periodic and free-slip boun…

Transitions between turbulent states in a two-dimensional shear flow

Vassilios Dallas, Kannabiran Seshasayanan, Stephan Fauve

We study the bifurcations of the large scale jets in the turbulent regime of a forced shear flow using direct numerical simulations of the Navier-Stokes equations. The bifurcations…
